font size    

Japanese Foreign Minister Yoriko Kawaguchi said Wednesday there is no concrete plan for Prime Minister Junichiro Koizumi to pay a second visit to the Democratic People's Republic of Korea (DPRK).

"The prime minister believes it is important to comprehensively resolve issues concerning North Korea (DPRK). No concrete plan hasbeen decided on his visit now," Kyodo News quoted Kawaguchi as saying before the House of Representatives Foreign Affairs Committee.

Japanese media have reported that Koizumi may visit Pyongyang to solve the abducted Japanese issue with the DPRK.

The premier paid a historic visit to Pyongyang in September 2002. The two countries signed the Pyongyang Declaration during that visit.
